The staff was great and we loved the amenities, but it was one of the hardest places for me to sleep. The walls are beyond thin. We could hear entire conversations next door at normal volumes, and people upstairs dropping things, walking, slamming doors ALL NIGHT. It was miserable as a light sleeper. I would stay here every time we visit Estes as long as I’m in an upstairs corner room.

This motel has been completely redone and is a fabulous value! The staff is incredibly friendly, the room so clean and comfortable, the location to estes park is within walking distance AND the complimentary smores were so fun!! Yes, you can hear noise from rooms on 2nd floor and the bathroom is small, but these are very minor inconveniences! Ever had a hot pot in your room? Amazing how it works.

Check in was easy and we arrived to complimentary s'mores ingredients. We didn't let the crazy wind from stopping us. The room was clean and a good size. Only downside was that for the life of us we couldn't get the fan/ac to turn on. Check out was easy and they recommended a breakfast spot that was delicious. So glad we stayed!

Staff was fantastic! Restaurant was amazing as well as the drinks. I would recommend the Mezcal margarita 👍 the room was a nice layout, and comfy bed. The amenities in the room were mid, other than that, great stay and location right in town and affordable. My wife and I probably ate at Casa Colina 4 times in our 3 night stay, that’s how good the food was, the chef there is excellent! 💯
